Safe client-side SQL sounds like what the author wants.

* Consistency when fetching data: define a UI that matches a particular SQL view.

* Request batching: It's probably not hard to send deltas on a large view with server-side support for sessions.

* Avoiding network waterfalls: basically the definition of a SQL view, with some session management to de-duplicate traffic when updating the view. A lot of clients support batching queries.

* UX when fetching data: this seems entirely like an oversite of some UI packages, but when all the other points line up there are very distinct points in application flow when the UI will know a query and potential update is in progress.

* Colocation: the definition of a view is necessarily local.

* File size: SQL is pretty lightweight on the schema details in results

* Type safety: SQL doesn't support dependent types, but e.g. postgres is pretty type-y

* Versioning: no explicit support in SQL but for changes to the UI a new view can be created. For changes to the data model a compatible change to the view can be committed in the same transaction as the data model change.

* Realtime updates: the glaring hole in the glory of SQL. You'll have to do some user-defined triggers server-side to support this.

* Consistency when updating data: the relational model with constraints enforces this

* Optimistic updates: if the theoretical differential view update described above exists then this is pretty trivial. Compare local and remote deltas when refreshing the view and indicate to the user the expected state that wasn't committed.

* Request queueing: this one seems to be more of a data model problem. If the data model approximates a state machine and queries are on transitions then yes, they need to be serialized. But why not do complex updates all at once with a multi-statement update transaction that commits or fails atomically?

* UX when updating data: presumably a UI tied to a single view is easier to indicate busy-ness for. If an update transaction is in flight, display a spinner. When it fails or commits display an OK or error.

* Durability when updating data: this could almost certainly be improved for most sql clients. However, idempotence is definitely covered by conditional update transactions.

* Type safety: user defined types if necessary but constraints are where a lot of the type-safety happens in SQL.

* Versioning: backward-compatibility by updating mutable views in the same transaction as data model changes. Forward-compatibility by rendering directly from the view that's returned, not expecting any particular view.

> In my experience, which is limited to phone cameras and the like, they seem to produce realistic images at short ranges, but a landscape picture looks much smaller and more distant than how the scene seems to me as I take it, unless I zoom in.

That's another issue, not caused by different lens or physics but by how our brains interprets what it sees. Our brains pick up and zoom on details subconsciously (and "compress" the uninteresting background) so you remember the details "bigger" than they are in reality.

That's why medieval cities on paintings have often towers twice the height compared to a photo of the same view. Same thing happens when you look at the Moon and then make a photo of it (without zooming). You have to zoom 2 or 3 times before it looks as big as "in reality".

There’s some good here but to talk only of business models misses the point. News provides public goods too and in examples like nyt, politico etc. they’re evaporating in favour of elite news for the elites. Now, the Australian bill is almost certainly at the behest of the Murdoch press, and so is likely shit...but if society, expressed through govt., decides that it values the public good of news, then society is entitled to find ways to fund that public good.

This is in no way an endorsement of the Soviet Union but it does need to be noted that the Soviet Union was in most parts of it's history, far more moderate than the Soviet Union under Stalin, Stalin has a higher body count than Hitler. Now in saying that, the Soviet Union was never a bastion of enlightenment era liberalism, free thought or personal freedoms. I agree it's not a end goal we should be striving for.

It's beyond my comprehension that anyone can believe that it was a reasonable response to some anodyne literary criticism. Hunger Games is rubbish. It's OK to say so. It's not OK to behave like a vicious lunatic because someone said the books and genre you like are rubbish. If you do lose your shit over it, then you are at best infantile and at worst mentally ill. The reaction might be predictable, but it's not defensible.
No, you can have a normal ⊥ arrows layout on the right half [1]. I do as I use those keys a lot. Or I can use a navigation layer as others have mentioned.

The magic is the double use of modifiers if tapped or held.

Whilst I personally could see a need for another column if you have a Nordic layout like mine, but that would make it not symmetrical and unnecessary for English layouts.

>And seriously, who would outright mock the Hunger Games without expecting some sort of disproportionate backlash?

I believe you're having some selective memory issues. This was back in 2015, when "Hunger Games" was starting to lose steam. And many feminists on twitter were lampooning it for focusing on romance, and having a flimsy love triangle, when the life-or-death situation of the book wouldn't realistically allow for that.

Mocking the "Hunger Games" and any book with a love triangle was totally in vogue.

>He made some godawful marketing and communications decisions and faced predictable consequences.

It's funny, because I've seen dozens of YA authors sneer at "Fifty Shades of Grey." Call it toxic, poorly written, laugh at it, mock it, insist it was dangerous to even publish it.

Yet I've never seen the Fifty Shades of Grey fanbase, or any Romance genre authors, talk about threatening, stalking, and publicly heckling those authors who criticize the work.

You call it "predictable consequences." I call it "hateful, disturbing, potentially dangerous behavior that reeks of censorship."

> First, the short sellers getting taken to the wood shed absolutely deserve it for placing such an idiotic bet.

The bet was good. A lot of companies are doomed to contract drastically. The problem is that someone found out about this specific bet and rallied others around it.
This is really well-stated. The goal should be reducing poverty, not inequality. China for example has drastically reduced the number of people living in poverty while also seeing massive increases in income inequality. Few people would make the case that the average person in China is doing worse than that they would have been 30 years ago, despite the fact that there is clearly more "income inequality".
The reason the mural was so so noteworthy was because the last war fought on that particular planet happened at such an early level of development (cavalry charges, armored knights, etc).

It's getting the cell temperature correct usually by heating up the cells.
I am not considering parking spots at all. That is where the traditional charge stations would remain. This would be for modernizing gas stations, or adding refueling stations anywhere there is room for a "drive through". No hydraulics. Just a set of carbide gears and points that push on a set of battery module releases one set at a time. Old module roles out, new module roles in. Never more than 1 disconnected at a time to ensure vehicle does not lose power. I envision that with time, the speed allowed in the drive-through should increase exponentially, speeding up commute times. No stopping, no lifting, just keep driving.

> Even though the plug is standard, you actually can't charge a non Tesla on a Tesla charger because the charger only accepts Tesla.

If I had an electric car I'd try to figure out the auth protocol, surely software-wise it's possible to pretend that a Tesla is plugged in (worst case is that there's a cryptographically secure key exchange, and someone would have to extract the key from a Tesla).

Hah, an adapter that pretends to be a Tesla that plugs between the supercharger and your car, that would fit in a cyberpunk-ish 2021.
Wow! FastComments.com is hands-down the best landing page I've encountered in a LONG time. Crystal-clear what it is, why it's a good choice, how it works, and a set of FAQs answering virtually all the questions / doubts / potential objections I could think of. Bookmarked; I may well use this for my own site when I get around to re-launching it. Bravo!
The worst part of this is taking the time to get the app all settled (hope they don't need to mail you a membership card!) and then find out that the charger is broken or slower than advertised. The state of things for non-Tesla charging is horrendous right now. Mostly thanks to big oil's attempt to corrupt every EV player ever, from the standards to the permitting to the carmakers. Now they're trying to own the space but they're faced with owning their own enormous mess. A tragedy of modern proportions.
> This isn't true. The institutions with Short Exposure are connected to the institutions who buy Robinhood data and perform high frequency trading on those orders. Citadel and Melvin can BUY GME themselves to mitigate the risks. It is likely that a substantial amount of GME is being held by the institutions who had short exposure. It's basic risk mitigation.

-- They would have to do this at great cost and loss (rumor mill has it at current loss of $4B). If you believe the reports in the media Melvin has had to go ask for money from other institutions. Thus bigger fish would now be involved as they are putting money out to Melvin.

> The high frequency traders who have the Robinhood data are making money on every Buy GME order and will make money on every sell when this bubble collapses.

-- Agreed i said as much in my comment that people will make money on it - some retail some institutionals.

> It is wrong to present this as a populist uprising.

-- Disagree. This is a trade that at its core is a sentiment of disenfranchisement, anger at wall street short sellers, financial establishment - and of course with the hope of making money.

> This is an incredible fluctuation, a hilarious anomaly, but it is nothing more than that. It will have no lasting impact.

- Agree - most likely - it will however make wallstreet institutional short sellers think more carefully about their positions. There will be impacts but doubtful anything transcendent on the markets. If anything SEC will investigate Wallstreetbets traders as opposed to doing anything to Wall street (which has been having carte blanche under the last administration's effort to neuter the SEC).

> I firmly believe that the hedge funds that held GME short positions have bought into GME to mitigate their exposure. They likely bought in algorithmically using robinhood data and are making money off of retail right now.

-- Might be, however the losses they took at the beginning on their position were pretty steep to jump right back into the pool.

> My message to the people here: /r/wallstreetbets is not a gameshark. You are still playing their game. You are still playing a rigged game and you are still losing.

-- I don't think anyone has allusions that the tables have turned. This is more like the chance for this one time give a giant F U to wallstreet who has been perceived to be making money off the backs of the population without any care at all from retail investors.
True, but according to Elons plans around the airline industry, the extra module space should be a wash in a couple of years as battery capacity is expected to grow substantially.
A lot of this is obviously just personal preference, but the spaceship-like display is the exact reason (well, not the only reason, but a big and emblematic one) that I don't want a Tesla. I have driven them. I do not like the interface. I want a "regular car" that happens to be electric, not something that's trying to be a smartphone on wheels.

I think the integrated graphics in AMD APUs are way beyond adequate for a large number of people. Unless you're running games from the last few years you don't even need a graphics card, never mind a dedicated PCIe slot. 3.0 should provide good performance on NVME drives and WiFi.
So many ways:

- If you own a stock and want to reduce the downside risk, you can buy a put option to ensure you'll always be able to sell your stock for a reasonable price, even if there's a financial crash.

- If you have the ability to produce some product (e.g. grain) but need some extra money (e.g. to buy seed or fix a tractor) or just want to lock in a sale price for your product, you can sell a futures contract.

- If you want need some product at some point in the future (e.g. fuel for your jets) and want to lock in the price, you can buy a futures contract.

Fundamentally, derivatives allow you to trade risk. You can pay somebody to absorb some risk for you or you can accept some risk in exchange for money.

Sorry, I guess I spoke too broadly. I was intending for this to be about the Supercharger stations as that's what TFA was about. This adapter will not work for any of the Telsa Supercharger stations you'll commonly find around. They'll work for the smaller charging stations that private individuals will own, but you won't be able to use Tesla's charging network with this adapter.

Buying Tesla is supporting vendor lock-in and proprietary standards instead of supporting open standards.

No, it depends on the application. There's a reason it's still called "solid wood".

If you look, most plywoods are "whitewood" or whatever is cheapest (most softwoods are incredibly strong as the term is just a synonym for coniferous). If you compare apples-to-apples -- Baltic Birch (or similar products with only birch layers) to solid birch...

The plywood doesn't have any noticeable wood movement;

The plywood can have fasteners and glue in any face (unlike solid where endgrain must be joined);

The solid wood usually has much better stiffness;

The solid wood is limited to shape and size by nature of trees; plywood can be found in larger sizes.

Good wooden chairs are impossible to find commercially now. The wood from the seat needs to be very wet and a wood that doesn't split easily, and the wood for the legs needs to be riven and dryer than what its final environment will be (so as close to 0% moisture as possible, at least <10%).

This is so that the legs expand a bit into the seat, which will continue to shrink, and make an incredibly tight fit. But it's not conducive at all to mass-production, which is why you often see them nailed, bracketed, bolted, etc, all sorts of dirty tricks.

Woodworking is a rabbit-hole you might find compelling or infuriating. You can't unlearn the knowledge when you do.

Hey loved followers: "Those evil legislators are trying to steal the election. We need to defend our liberty."
There could be waste in terms of duplicated effort. If Ford has charging stations that cover, e.g., the Rockies very well, it'd be "wasteful" to force Tesla to have to build out an identical network to cover the same region. (Where "force" is accomplished by incompatible cables, or communication changes, or some other issue.)

If companies can share infrastructure, then they all will benefit from each other improving their own networks. Ford adding stations that can be used by other EVs will further improve the quality of life for all EVs.

Any long lens you buy is going to use the telephoto design, it's a given. A fairly mild crop to say make a 85mm simulate a 105mm is almost undetectable in terms of quality, and the difference that can make to the look of a portrait because you took a few steps further back and then cropped to get the same framing as a 105mm, is very noticeable.
Unlike with ICE cars, it's trivial to turn any parking spot into a charging station for an EV. The model changes from "expensive building with attendants on every corner" to "a (120v/slow charging) plug at most parking spots". This is already the norm in northern communities where you need to plug in ICE cars if you want them to start in the morning.

In apartments/flats you are usually parking in a dedicated parking lot, that can be easily renovated to have spots with a plug. Street parking in front of small houses will likely gain parking meter like devices with extension cords.

I was just about to chime in to say something similar. Even if you have a vehicle which can move furniture and a day to blow picking it up, you're gonna pay at least $40 just in gas for furniture which, from the sound of things, isn't that much cheaper per piece than the entire bedroom set they had purchased.

Not to say that I haven't done that before. In the right circumstances it can be a good decision, but I don't know that it's a general purpose replacement for IKEA.
They're not really "saving it". This is more like a hearty f-u to the people doing the hyper-aggressive shorting. It might make some redditors a nice bundle of money at the expense of some hedge funds in the short term.

GameStop, AFAIK, is a dead-end strip-mall based retailer who, much like Blockbuster, has failed to adapt to changes in the last few years. They've lost something like a billion dollars and nothing is looking up for them as far as their actual business goes. Gamestop likely doesn't have a plan for revitalization unless that involves liquidation or getting bought out. I expect they're utterly blindsided by these recent events-- they've been very quiet about it. Gamestop surely knows this won't end well for them.

Is there a place for GameStop-like retail in dying suburban strip-malls? Sure. Are they a growth industry? nope! The Hedge-fund guys are ultimately "correct" that GameStop has no future. I just hope that all the reddit kids who bought this stock are fully aware that the last ones holding the bag are going to lose money, but I feel nothing but elation at the hedge funds losing a ton of money over something so ridiculous.

Then you’ll dive into the "how": making a page work properly with screen readers, and managing input focus (e.g. the highlight you see when tabbing through a form.) You’ll understand what "semantics" and "semantic markup" mean for web pages and add ARIA markup to enable navigating the interface with a range of assistive devices. Finally, you’ll learn styling techniques that help users with partial vision navigate your pages easily and reliably.

I appreciate the explanations, thanks. I don't have the trading context. Seems like tail risk or Black Swan events yet again. I hope they made enough money on these shorts that it wasn't "picking up pennies in front of steamrollers". If not, then I wish there would be better rules to prevent the short squeeze, like requiring calls instead of stock borrowing (maybe this is too expensive). When the liability is theoretically infinite, it just seems really risky to count on the hope that you can keep borrowing the stock (which works great the vast majority of the time but every now and then you lose billions).
@Zelphyr I feel refreshed by the way you humored me and my weird, half-baked ideas in this little sub thread.
Can you use other electric vehicles at a Tesla charging station? I'm thinking of getting as used Bolt. I'd mainly use it for driving around town and back and forth to work where they do have really cheap charging available. But it'd be nice to have more options when doing some longer trips.
